Chapter 2143: The Tree of Life
"You're too salty." Seeing what Meyana said, Frida felt a little weak. The witch wanted to lie flat, so others really couldn't force her to stand up.
"I just think that our side should do this." Meyana said seriously. Anyway, she has already got the ticket. Zheng Yichen hasn't moved much recently because he is making the Ark spaceship.
As long as there is no accident, this matter is a certainty, accident? Any existence that wants to make surprises is their enemy.
"That's you, don't take me with you."
"Oh? What are you going to do?"
"I don't prepare anything, I just want to figure out the magic power right now."
"Then just wait." Meyana did not continue on this topic. Witches of their type are not good at research, so the exploration and research in this area still depends on the Witches of Life and the others.
"It's almost time, let's go." Frida glanced at the time, left the bar with Meyana, and came to a dark cave. This place is a hidden stronghold of the fallen. The victim is performing a ceremony, which is similar to the traditional evil god ceremony from the outside.
But after their in-depth investigation, they determined that this ceremony was not aimed at the chaotic evil gods, but at a specific existence. After discovering this line, they completely confirmed that the mother of evil gods It is the state of being dead and yet not dead.
The other party may have given up his original body, trying to carry out some kind of reincarnation.
But they couldn't find the specific location of Cromia at present.
"Be careful, something is wrong." Meyana said to Frieda. Through her own ability, she keenly felt that the flow of negative power in the crypt was a bit weird.
Surrounding them vaguely, this is different from the previous ones.
The fallen people around were doing what they were going to do as usual. When the ceremony was about to take shape, Frida raised her hand and waved out a cloud of light, which condensed into a transparent The short knife, the short knife easily cut through the entire ceremony that was about to end.
The Negative Witch also made a move at this moment, and the negative power generated by the surrounding fallen people in this shocking change was swept away by her, leaving them in a state of confusion, and some even cried bitterly, with smears on their faces. With a strong sense of remorse, and some directly unable to bear the pressure in his heart, he stabbed himself in the throat with the props used for the ceremony in his hand.
They chose to commit suicide because all the sources of their negative power were sucked away by the Negative Witch. That kind of thing includes sources of hatred, resentment, and jealousy.
After the lack of these, their positive emotions immediately occupy the high ground. Even the heinous people will become down-to-earth good people at this time, and some degenerates who have temporarily become good people cannot bear the burden of their past. What I had done, I couldn't stand this kind of suffering, so I chose to commit suicide.
Those who cried bitterly watched someone set an example for themselves, and followed suit.
Tavier is no stranger to this. Although the Negative Witch is not good at direct combat, she is also the first-rate kind in manipulating people's hearts. Taking away the source of negative power from the villains is a very lethal force for those villains. big way.
It is entirely possible to say how many crimes the other party has committed, and how much psychological pressure they will have to bear at this time. On the contrary, those normal people don't care.
In less than half a minute, apart from the two of them, there was no one in the entire crypt to breathe.
"It's really hard to find useful things from a bunch of lunatics." Meyana shook her hand and said with a frown. These degenerates actually wanted to sacrifice themselves and the entire town. Sacrifice, although this is a very good opportunity, but they are also within the scope of the ceremony.
If they don't care about it, their disguise will inevitably be exposed, and the destruction of a town may implicate them. Usually, the two witches don't care much about this matter, but they don't want to take the blame.
Moreover, the common interests of the witch group also affect them, and this common interest cannot be destroyed at this time.
So they took action to interrupt this ceremony. When Frieda started, she specially manifested Eve's cutting blade, just to cut off some peeping sights here, and make this place a blank area.
Of course, if you can consider taking the blame, you can follow the end of the sacrifice and try to find the target of the sacrifice, but the success rate of doing so is not high, mainly because they will pay attention to the existence here after they are exposed. As far as I can tell, the other party can unilaterally cut off the connection with this side.
"Take your time, I've memorized the ceremony just now, and when the opportunity is right, I'll find a place where no one is there to perform it again." Frieda said, he memorized the ceremony, but he didn't know much about it. No idea to try it out right away.
In case this kind of ceremony is one-on-one, they will be exposed directly after using it, although there are still many who are investigating the existence of the mother of evil gods to cover them up.
But the witch is here to investigate this matter, so be careful.
Of course Meyana has no objection to this.
"One of the rituals failed?" Seeing that the fruit on a small tree in front of him didn't take shape, but directly withered into something like mud, the fallen man snorted coldly, and pulled out the small tree directly. After looking at the other small trees bearing fruit, his angry face softened a little.
He directly picked all the fruits from those trees, put them into a basket, and walked out of the secret room. There were already many fallen people waiting here. The middle-aged fallen person didn't say anything, and put the basket in a On the stone platform: "One for each person."
As soon as the voice of the middle-aged degenerate fell, those degenerates couldn't help swarming up and scrambling. Although they were eager for more, they were afraid of something. In the end, everyone had an extra fruit in their hands, and only one degenerate The hunter didn't grab it, and he looked at the middle-aged degenerate angrily.
"There is a place where the ritual was interrupted. If you want the fruit of life, you have to investigate it yourself." The middle-aged fallen man said calmly, and threw the withered sapling with the fruit to him.
The fallen man wanted to roar, but he looked at his fellows around him with gloating expressions. He took a deep breath and held back his anger.
This happens every time the fruit of life is divided. It seems that this time it is considered good. In the previous few times, several fallen people could not grab it.
Once again, it directly exceeded ten... If everyone can get it, and each person is limited to one, why should they fight for it in the first place?
Everyone was worried about encountering this situation. He was one of the groups who had been eating melons to watch the excitement the first two times, and now it was his turn.
"I see." The fallen man did not continue to stay here, and left here with a half-meter-high sapling. He was going to investigate the place where the ceremony failed. Every place where the ceremony was performed was carefully selected. There is a specific existence that can perform rituals.
As for the other existences within the range, they are all accompaniments, just like cooking, there are side dishes besides the main dish.
Ceremony is not something that can be carried out in a place with a lot of people.
The rest of the fallen people quickly ate the fruit of life in their hands, felt the changes in their bodies, and carefully put away the fruit core. Under the watchful eyes of the middle-aged fallen person, they dispersed separately, looking for the next one who could The place where the ceremony is performed, and the fruit core in the hand is the key to open the ceremony.
Then the middle-aged degenerates also left here and came to a valley. This hidden valley is a base of the abyss forces. After the last big cleansing, the abyss lurkers on the mainland have been completely replaced. For a moment, this stronghold is highly confidential.
Now as long as there are any abyssal creatures who want to mix in, the result will be consumed as nutrients for the tree of reincarnation. With the lesson from last time, the abyss messengers will only use those abyssal creatures that fell through the tree of reincarnation. The abyssal creatures left over from the abyssal catastrophe will all be wiped out.
"Heh~ It's just like what you said, someone came here to investigate the situation." Frida looked at a fallen person who was just like an ordinary person, snapped her fingers, and the fallen person entered with a natural expression. In the town, it seemed that he didn't know that he had entered a real illusion.
In this illusion, while pretending to be a normal professional, the fallen were also investigating some important things, and soon found the hidden burrow.
Looking at the degenerates who committed suicide in the crypt, he checked the surrounding environment a little confusedly, what's going on? Why are these colleagues committing suicide in such a good manner? There are also strong remorse on the face, which makes him quite disgusted when he sees it. Now that he has become a fallen person, he must naturally carry it through to the end.
Especially the degenerates of the evil gods like them, how could they have a conscience, only the group of false hypocrites and degenerates of the ghosts and gods have that kind of thing.
"It's disgusting!" The fallen man kicked away the fallen man who committed suicide at his feet, checked the rituals around him, and saw that the whole ceremony was still intact, he immediately breathed out, took out the sapling, and prepared to redo the sapling. The ceremony here continued, and he couldn't accept that he lost a fruit of life!
"Can your illusion affect what happens next?"
"Of course not." Frieda said bluntly: "This is just an illusion. It is easy to create a real illusion based on the town. If he continues to operate, the town will still be finished."
"Then we'll just watch."
"Okay, how about saying it was your suggestion?" Frieda nodded, watching the cultist continue to carry out follow-up operations, so that they could continue what they hadn't done before.
Meyana shook her head: "I don't think so."
The two witches were silent for a while, Frieda snapped her fingers, and the cultist who was about to complete the ritual in the crypt fell into a stupor, and everything he did afterwards was in a dream, not fantasy and reality interactions between them.
When they were in the town before, the two of them could use the reason not to expose themselves, but now they can't find a suitable reason.
In the previous period of the Witch Alliance, neither of them would care about the current affairs. If the Witch of Life or the Witch of Curse was here, I am afraid they would not watch the things going on like this.
Now that their camp is different from usual, Xiaolong will also care about this matter here, and the two of them holding the boat tickets don't want to do such a thing at this time.
"So you sent this thing over to me?" Annie looked at the Fallen who was packed and sent by Frieda, and raised her eyebrows slightly: "You are responsible for investigating this matter, right?"
"Just checking his physical condition, won't it take much time for you? And this tree of life, aren't you interested?"
"The tree of life?" Annie looked at a sapling tightly clutched in the hands of the fallen. Isn't this the tree of reincarnation? She didn't touch the sapling, and after observing it for a while, she activated a sealing magic that had been arranged in advance in the sealed space, completely cutting off the connection between this place and the outside world before reaching out to take it over.
The sapling left her hand, and the face of the fallen man who had fallen into the illusion showed a look of painful struggle. Frida was a little surprised, and slapped the fallen man's face, and the fallen man fell into a deep dream again.
Annie checked the breath in her hand and said, "Tell me about your discovery."
Frida recounted the information she obtained through the real illusion. Annie nodded slightly after listening to it, and proceeded to carry out relevant inspections on this fallen person, while Frida continued to trap the other party through the illusion. to obtain information, but there is not much effective information that can be retrieved.
There is very little information about things like the tree of life, and the main information that this fallen person knows is almost none. The other fallen people he knows basically know it, just like the tree of reincarnation and the evil god ritual.
The difference is that compared to those fallen people who only know the tree of reincarnation, this fallen person is considered a small member. After arranging a ceremony in a specific place, you can get something called the fruit of life, but every time The fruit of life that can be divided at one time is limited.
The fallen who cannot get the fruit of life should go to the corresponding ritual area to investigate. Even if nothing is found, if they can complete the ceremony again, they can get the fruit of life again.
This fallen man failed to grab the fruit when distributing the fruit of life this time, so which fruit he wanted to get was missing. Obviously, the two of them destroyed the ritual of the town and affected the number of fruit of life, resulting in He didn't grab the fruit.
The fruit of life can improve the user's physique and soul, and can strengthen their resistance to the erosion of the power of evil gods. This is also the main reason why all evil gods' fallen people pursue the fruit of life.
That's all the useful information the other party knows.
